This paper introduces an innovative analytical model to compute flame velocities and temperatures within a premix burner in a domestic gas oven. This model significantly streamlines the heat transfer simulation process by simplifying the modeling of...

Metal material additive manufacturing (MEAM) has risen in interest in the last five years as an alternative to powder bed processes. MEAM is promising for generating shelled components with defined infill structures, making it very interesting for li...

The present study evaluates the ratcheting response of notched cylindrical samples made of 1045 steel alloy subjected to asymmetric loading cycles using the kinematic hardening framework, coupled with Neuber’s rule. Test samples with V-shaped a...

This research delves into the design, modeling, and finite element impact analysis of the segmented sandwich composite armor system subjected to impact loading, considering different parameters such as materials to be used, armor height, and armor de...

This study outlines a comprehensive strategy for designing and implementing robust controllers tailored for intelligent structures. This study presents a robust control-based structural identification technique that uses the input/output data of the...

Marine vessels rely heavily on propeller shaft systems to adjust the engine torque and propeller thrust. However, these systems are subjected to various dynamic excitations during operation, such as transverse, longitudinal, and torsional excitations...

Current trends show that wind turbines are growing in size to meet a rising demand for renewable energy generation, and their upscaled rotors have inherently become more flexible to maintain a proportionally lighter design. This is because larger rot...

A new moment-resisting mass timber connection was designed based on the principles of force equilibrium in applied mechanics. The connection configuration utilizing two mechanically fastened threaded steel rods embedded into the end of a glulam beam...

A variety of hollow microneedle (HMN) designs has emerged for minimally invasive therapies and monitoring systems. In this study, a design change limiting the indentation depth of the (3D) printed custom microneedle assembly (circular array of five c...
